warm and cozy.

This weekend we bought a real Christmas tree for the first time! We haven't had time to decorate it yet but it's no more than 4 feet tall and just the cutest little tree. I did get around to filling up a few vases with pinecones which I scatter around the house. I usually just bring a bit of the outdoors indoors and keep my decorating very simple and natural.

My hubs was busy with event photo shoots {'tis the season} all weekend long so last night we plopped ourselves on the sofa in front of the TV to watch our favorite show, Dexter (sooooo good!) with two big cups of hot cocoa. The fireplace was going and our little tree was looking so darn cute. I was looking around feeling so blessed for my home and for my fantastic husband, who made the hot chocolate by the way. He followed this recipe. Real chocolate... dangerous.

Paula, I haven't seen Psych but I always love recommendations so I will definitely check it out on netflix, thanks! My shows are Dexter and True Blood, i'm not big on TV shows either but I seem to like them scary, go figure ;)
